Mexican & German people...
On this post, I will be talking about the principal differences that I have found between Mexican and German people, especially on food habits.
To start I must say, that I can talk about German habits because my brother and his German girlfriend lived with my parents and me, for some months. So said that, I noticed that they, or at least my brother's girlfriend, like to drink strong coffee on the mornings meanwhile they are on their computers. But let's be honest, we all want (and need) some caffeine at the morning. The point here is that, like some people here in Mexico, she doesn't add anything else than a lot of coffee spoons on her cup.
The other habit that I've noticed is that they really (really) enjoy hard bread with dried fruits on it. If she didn't buy a German box bread, she was baking one. One day, she was making a birthday cake for me; at the beginning it looks really good, but when she finished the whole thing was really hard and dry. I couldn't say anything, I mean who bakes you a cake at this time, everybody will go and buy it on some bakery or something. The thing here is that being honest that cake wasn't my favourite, but I still eat it because she was really nice and waste a lot of her time to bake it.
The last thing I want to say is that it doesn't matter where are you from, the important thing here is that we should promote our culture and be open to know other cultures at the same time.
